(ANP) Although Negro nurses now belong to the North Carolina State Nurses Association and the former state organization of the National Association of Colored Graduate Nurses is no more, colored nurses still are subjected to subtle forms of bias here. Tlie colored group was disbanded on a national basis after the American Nurses Association persuaded the states which had separate groups to accept Negro nurses into membership. Integration, however, even in the comparatively liberal state of North Carolina can hardly be considered a wholly accomplished fact. The colored nurses are able to attend the annual meetings although they as yet do not hold office nor do they seem, according to some, to find that total "professional communion. These observers expect progress to come in time, but the time has not yet arrived.

For example the arrangements for the dinner this year did not have the colored nurses sitting with their white sister members. Instead, Negro nurses were forced to dine on a nearby balcony in the same hotel. They were close enough to hear the guest speaker expound on the virtues of democracy but. they did not mingle with the white members at the dinner. The situation was highlighted by the fact that perhaps the most distinguished member of the organization from the standpoint of personal achievement is a colored nurse.

Lt. Col. Mary Mills. Miss Mills who has been in the foreign service of the United States Public Health Service for nearly 10 years, established the first nurse training school under American auspices in Liberia. She is now engaged in developing similar work in Beirut Lebanon.

An active member of the North Carolina State Nurses Association Col. Mills sent a contribution of $25 from her foreign post to the presi of the National Negro Labor Council. it was announced recently from the NNLC national office in Detroit. Expected to attract well over 1.000 delegates from all parts of the nation. the NLC confab will be held at the Perishing Hotel in Chicago, Illinois.

According to Coleman A. Young NLC Executive Secretary, "the major issue before this Third Annual Convention will be development of a program to win democratic job opportunities for Negro workers on the railroads of America. In no other industry do Negro workers have a more glorious history of long time service. In no other industry is the discriminatory job pattern more vicious, while at the same time, the railroads are supported largely by the taxpayers. Negro as well as white, in the form of government subsidies.

The current trend in railroad employment is toward the complete elimination of Negro workers. In the South where Negroes have held many operational positions, such as firemen and brakemen since the beginning of the Pilgrim ins. Co. Makes Huge Loan To Church MRS. MAMIE B.

Navy, Air Force Report Full Integration WASHINGTON 1 ANP I The army is now' about 95 per certt integrated while the navy and airforce have complete integration, declared i Assistant Secretary of Defense John A. Hannah, last week. In an interview with a reporter from the U.

S. News and World Report, the defense spokesman declared that "no colored men in the navy or the air force is serving in colored' units. He admitted that there are still a few' colored units in the army but they are being done aw'ay with rapidly. In eight months there will be no unintegrated units in the army. He said reports from commanders state that, integration is universally desirable and works very well in spite of all contrary predictions.

There has been no resistance, no violence or demonstrations about it. "Colored men are very effective members of the armed forces. stated Hannah. "Some of them are more effective than others, of course depending upon their background and training." There are a goodly number of colored officers in the integrated i set-ups. said the assistant secre-! cary, but not as many, colored offi-! cers proportionately as there are white officers.

Colored officers are, in some instances, in command of white troops and they are constantly being moved up as they demonstrate their ability. Although the quota system is no i longer being used by the army, it is estimated that 13 per cent of their personnel is colored. Secretary Hannah stated that the army has no idea of lowering its physical standards. On the contrary i it has requested that the mental i qualifications be raised at the mini- mum level. Some of the services feel that they are being hindered by being required to take too many people from category four, the lowest of the mental categories.

ily affair and that others are to be considered as well. This will affect their future conduct in society as well as in the home. When guests are in attendance and the kids favorite show is about to go on the air. it is only natural that the youngsters will want to watch it. Train your children to politely ask the guests if they the guests would like to view the show.

However, an important part of upbringing is the prevention of tantrums if permission to see the program is denied on the grounds that it distracts visitors. Actually, concludes Pinza, "the best and most practical way to impress these TV manners on your children is to practice the rules yourself. Open house was held a tile Headquarters building of the National Association of Colored Women immediately following the luncheon. In spite of the brief one night's stay visits were made to three other National Headquarters which claimed my interest because of the small part I have had in their establishment. They are: The American Home Economics Association, and Delta Sigma Theta Headquarters and the National Baptist Retreat, a home for returned foreign missionaries.

I point to all of these buildings and staffs with pride. The sacrifices made for their development have not been made hi vain. and others. Mrs. B.

Pinza, who portrays a father of eight children on a weekly TV series "Bonino" and who in real life has three children of his own. has become increasingly conscious of a new set of manners which children need learn to govern their viewing of television.

"For example." says the star of tile Lady Esther program, "children should be taught that TV is to be watched and watched without comment Too many children want to start a conversation or interpo- 1 late a remark during the family's favorite program. The youngsters should be taught early that this is inconsiderate of others. Other youthful violators of the enjoyment of others, continues the romantic basso, are those children who want to watch only their favorites regardless of thp opinions of others.
